This module extends code contained in Coronavirus_Statistics_v004.Rmd to include sourcing of all key functions and parameters. This file includes the latest code for analyzing all-cause death data from CDC Weekly Deaths by Jurisdiction. CDC maintains data on deaths by week, age cohort, and state in the US. Downloaded data are unique by state, epidemiological week, year, age, and type (actual vs. predicted/projected).
These data are known to have a lag between death and reporting, and the CDC back-correct to report deaths at the time the death occurred even if the death is reported in following weeks. This means totals for recent weeks tend to run low (lag), and the CDC run a projection of the expected total number of deaths given the historical lag times. Per other analysts on the internet, there is currently significant supra-lag, with lag times much longer than historical averages causing CDC projected deaths for recent weeks to be low.
The code leverages tidyverse and sourced functions throughout:
# All functions assume that tidyverse and its components are loaded and available
library(tidyverse)
## -- Attaching packages --------------------------------------- tidyverse 1.3.1 --
## v ggplot2 3.3.3 v purrr 0.3.4
## v tibble 3.1.1 v dplyr 1.0.6
## v tidyr 1.1.3 v stringr 1.4.0
## v readr 1.4.0 v forcats 0.5.1
## -- Conflicts ------------------------------------------ tidyverse_conflicts() --
## x dplyr::filter() masks stats::filter()
## x dplyr::lag() masks stats::lag()
# If the same function is in both files, use the version from the more specific source
source("./Generic_Added_Utility_Functions_202105_v001.R")
source("./Coronavirus_CDC_Excess_Functions_v001.R")
The main function is readRunCDCAllCause(), which performs multiple tasks:
STEP 0: Optionally, downloads the latest data file from CDC STEP 1: Reads and processes a data file has been downloaded from CDC to local
STEP 2: Extract relevant data from a processed state-level COVID Tracking Project list
STEP 3: Basic plots of the CDC data
STEP 4: Basic excess-deaths analysis
STEP 5: Create cluster-level aggregate plots
STEP 6: Create state-level aggregate plots
STEP 7: Create age-cohort aggregate plots
STEP 8: Returns a list of key data frames, modeling objects, named cluster vectors, etc.
The functions are tested on previously downloaded data:

Variables Age and deathPlace appear to be well-aligned between sub-totals and totals, while variable State shows some more significant differences. Next steps are to further research what is contained in State, including alignment to other data sources.
Deaths by state are compared between files, using July 31, 2021 as the cutoff:
# Create summary by state and year-month

Cumulative deaths by month for total US appear consistent across the files. Next steps are to continue exploring for state-level data:

The New York City data will need to be added to NY for further analysis. There are some surprising differences in total deaths reported by state, even as total deaths (after adding Nyc) are nearly identical between the files.
Breakdown of deaths by age is also explored:

There are very few reported flu deaths in the 2020-2021 data. The change in covidDeaths by age over time appears to be at most a minor driver of the change in totalDeaths by age over time. This is consistent with covidDeaths being in the 10%-20% range of totalDeaths, distributed by age (to a first order) in a somewhat similar pattern.
A similar process is run for place of death:

Relative to overall deaths, COVID deaths appear more prevalent in the inpatient healthcare setting or nursing home and less prevalent at home. The proportion has moved away from nursing homes and towards inpatient (hospital) as the pandemic progressed.
Exploration of the place of death for COVID and non-COVID deaths is explored:
zeroNA <- function(x) ifelse(is.na(x), 0, x)
# Locations of death by age
tempPlotData <- deathAge_20210824_conv %>%

As seen in other analyses, COVID deaths tend to occur in an older population in the institutional (nursing home or hospital) setting. Further exploration of these trends over time and by location may be interesting.
The evolution by month is also explored:
# Basic plotting data
p2 <- tempPlotData %>%

State=="United States",

facet_wrap(~endDate) +

COVID deaths are clearly clustered by each of age, month, and place. Older people, late-2020 and early-2021, and inpatient hospital settings have much higher amounts and proportions of covid death
